Message to the Mother Hen

Dear A Gab:

Look at this! You see? I am posting. I am not a good blogger.  Maybe I should just copy paste Facebook posts? Anyway. In swimming yesterday I mastered this one turn. Be proud. Hmmm what else happened? I went 30 min overtime in piano practice today because I couldn't get this one measure and it was bugging the you-know-what out of me and I wanted to improve myself deeply before the start of eighth grade. It really bugged that the teacher was not leaving because I wanted to work on my piano skills.  You know what? I don't know why I did that. So. The end.

P.S. Did you notice how the teachers aren't putting ANY stress on 4th quarter finals? This also bugs the you-know-what out of me. Those double crossing teachers.

Come On C Fae!!!

I don't know what it is with C Fae, but she hasn't posted on this blog in a VERY long time. Let me rephrase that-she has NEVER posted on this blog EVER! I have tried everything to get her to come back and post, but it hasn't worked. So now, I want all of you who read this to copy and paste the following text into an email and send it to adventuresinpi@gmail.com!!! Here is the text...

Dear C Fae, 


A Gab is very ashamed of you because you never post on the best blog on the internet, Adventures In Pi. A Gab works very hard to maintain this fantastically amazing blog and she wants you to help. Please, for the sake of your readers, continue to post on the super coolio blog, Adventures In Pi. Thank you.


Sincerely, 
[Insert Blog Reader's Name Here]

Maybe, this will help C Fae to get the message. Thank you for your efforts.

Signed,

WEB Success!!! :)

Happiness and joy are in the air, for C Fae and I have made it into our school's WEB program for next year! I absolutely can't wait! In case you were wondering, WEB (which stands for Where Everybody Belongs) is a program for 8th graders at our school. It's sort of like leadership, but a little different. The WEB program helps to put on the dances, organizes activities throughout the year, and most of all, organizes the 6th grade orientation. We get to help the new, helpless, defenseless 6th graders! I have been waiting since the first day of 6th grade to become a WEB leader. Congrats to all readers who made it too, and for those who didn't, don't sweat it. It won't be the end of the world, and has nothing to do with you, personally.

For once in my life, I can't wait for summer to end so I can start my year as a WEB leader!!! :)

P.S. C Fae and I are also happy about making it into geometry, and since there is only one class, we will be in math together!!!

OW!

Howdy everybody. It's A Gab. I am currently in a bad mood. Hard to believe I was in one of the most fantastic moods of my life earlier. Anyway, I just got this stupid dumb wart frozen off of my foot...AGAIN! I would post pictures, but I have a feeling we would have a lot less readers if I did that so, I decided against it. Ok, I just want to warn you, if you are easily disgusted, stop reading now. For those who aren't, you get to learn how a wart is removed from your foot. First, the podiatrist takes a knife and begins scraping away at the skin covering the wart. Oh, but that's not all! Next he takes out his fancy little sprayer thing, and sprays your foot with -200 degrees of liquid nitrogen! Finally, you cannot walk properly after. Pleasant, isn't it? :) Also, C Fae said she would post, but I'm sure you have noticed that that has not happened. I obviously cannot convince her, so why don't you try? Send us an email at adventuresinpi@gmail.com!!! Come on people, do it for C Fae!

Cal Academy of Sciences

Yesterday I took a field trip for smart people (A.K.A. GATE kids). We went to the California Academy of Sciences in SanFran (Only people from California have permission to call it "SanFran"; I have decided to make that a new law.) Anyway, C Fae was invited, but she didn't want to go, so I had to go by myself. It was a ton of fun, even though I missed C Fae. So, I'd like to explain the pics which I put up. The first one, my personal favorite, is a picture of an animal called an Indricotherium (in-dric-oh-theer-ee-um). Anybody here watch Cake Boss? Well, they had an episode where Buddy and the team went to the Museum of Natural History to get a preview of a new exhibit called "Extreme Mammals". They ended up having the same exhibit at the Academy, and it was super cool! Anyway, Buddy created an Indricotherium Cake for the exhibit's opening. My friend and I didn't even know about it, and we watched that episode of Cake Boss on my iPod on the bus going to the Academy. We were both really excited when we first saw it! They are my new favorite extinct animals (nothing can replace frogs as my number 1 favorite animal!). Now, here are some fun facts...
*They lived during the Cenozoic Era
*They are FIVE TIMES the size of a rhinocerous!
*They were the largest mammal to ever walk the earth!

Next, there's me with the fake zebras :). I had a super great time! If you'd like to visit the California Academy of Sciences, you'd better go before the closing of the Extreme Mammals exhibit on September 12th. It is found on 55 Music Concourse Drive in San Francisco California and the phone number is (415) 379 8000.

You all have been reading our blog for a while now. I'm sure that during this time you have been wanting to get to know us a little better. Well now, welcome to a special blog post known as "Your Questions Answered"! I will now choose a volunteer to ask a question. Oh, how about you in the striped shirt? Ok, what question would you like to ask Mr. Striped Shirt? "Well, I was actually wondering what you and C Fae looked like. That is a very good question. If you look above you will see a picture of C Fae and I (A Gab, of course). As you can see, I am on the left and C Fae is on the right. Ok thank you Mr. Striped Shirt, now I need another volunteer. What about you, Ms. Mickey Mouse Baseball Cap? What is your question? "I wanted to know what some of your hobbies are." Another great question...well, my main hobby is gymnastics and I would say C Fae's is definetely reading. You know, she can read a book a day? Thank you Ms. Mickey Mouse Baseball Cap, *ding ding* Oh! That sound means that we are out of time! This is A Gab signing off for "Your Questions Answered"! I'll see you all next time!

Happy April Fool's Day 2010

Well, the time has come again for one of the most fun holidays of the year! April Fool's Day is here. Before I give you some prank ideas, I would just like to brush you all up on the history of the holiday. It all began in 1582 when the pope ordered that a new calendar be established. He replaced the Julian Calendar with a new one known as the Gregorian Calendar. After changing the name of the calendar, he also changed the date of New Year's Day which was previously on April 1st. Many people were happy to celebrate the holiday on a new date of January 1st. But others were upset and continued to celebrate on April 1st. So of course, people began to make fun of these individuals and call them "traditionalists". Hence, they began playing practical jokes on them and what not. This is how the holiday came about.

Anyway, if you need some prank ideas, I have a few traditional ones that will keep the victim on their feet.

1. Go to the following link: http://deadfake.com/Send.aspx
This is a great site that lets you send fake, anonymous emails to your friends and family. You simply type in the recipient's email address and create a fake email address (such as parishilton@yahoo.com or something like that) and type away!!! Great fun!

2. Although it's cliched, it still never gets old...why not super glue a coin to the floor somewhere? Someone will surely try to pick it up and you will practically pee yourself laughing watching them struggle.

3. I actually used this prank once and it worked out very well and was absolutely hilarious...for anyone in your family who drinks coffee, replace all the sugar in the sugar bowl with salt. This will leave your coffee drinker in for a surprise! I used this one on my dad and it was so disgusting that he spit out his coffee into the sink! Awesome prank.

4. Easy, fun and hilarious...sneak into a victim's room and toggle with any clock or alarm clock they have. You could set the clock forward or back a few hours and whomever you prank will wake up a bit confused. Or set an extra early alarm and hide the clock...the victim will go nuts!!!

5. Easy to do if you have the right materials...Take some wax paper and poor glue all over it. Peel the glue off the wax paper when it is dry. Place the glue next a cup which is knocked over. Instant fake mess!!!

Hope these jokes help! Post comments with results! Also, take caution tomorrow, you never know who'll prank you. Happy April Fool's Day!
